Hits

Any request made to the server which is logged, is considered
a “hit”. Thus a hit is a request for any file – html pages,
images, sound files, scripts etc...

Hits also include requests made to the server, which did not result in any
files being returned (for example if the browser has already downloaded a file).

Files

Some requests made to the server, require that the server
then send a file back to the requesting client, such as an html page or graphic
image. The files total is the total number of files sent back to the client
in the specified period.

Pages

The “Pages” total includes all HTML pages
and also any scripts that generate an HTML page (e.g. PHP or ASP pages).

Sites

This is the total number of unique client IP addresses
which made requests to the server in the specified period.

Visits

This is the really important figure. “Visits” is
the total number of unique visitors (i.e. client IP addresses) to your site.
Note that a visitor is not considered unique if they return more than once
in any
30-minute
period.

Detailed Reporting

to obtain more detail about the traffic coming to your site:

Each month's page is divided into sections.

Hits by Response Code

codes returned by the server during the month selected. This section is quite
useful for determining broken links (for example code 404 - Not Found) and
general site integrity.
